Already had two close calls today!! Should have read this sooner. After 20 years it would suck to get divourced over this.

z5. Always pin the hitch latch. Always double check the hitch is properly seated on the ball before leaving. I had a false hitch latch last week on my ATV trailer and am glad I caught it before towing.

Little over 20 years ago I was pulling a fuel tank behind my truck and didn't have it pinned. Was going around the town square in the small town I lived in and the trailer popped off. No brakes on trailer. The owner of the car the trailer parked itself in was very nice despite having 500 gallons of desiel in their passenger seat. Have not pulled a trailer without pinning since. Leasons learned the hard way are often learned the best.
